  1. Alicia liked a post in a topic by Creyk in If you could choose ONE unreleased song for Lana to release, which would it be?   
    Damn You because it's really catchy, and not superlsow so it could even get some radio airplay
    And then we would finally have a proper finished version
    And then she would perform it live (probably) and that would be so freakin amazing
     
    I WONT CRY MYSELF TO SLEEP LIKE A SUCKER!!!! (And fuck you!!!)
     
    Oh mah gawd this thread is gonna give me wet dreams about Lana doing this

    I'm pretty sure it's about TS. Remember that tweet from Jamie King talking about Taylor's video? She was really close to Lana around that time and if she said that on twitter I'm pretty sure she must have talked about it with Lana. She was pretty mad because TS copied Lana.

    From Lanaboards twitter:
     
    "I'm a drag and... you're a whore / Mimicking me is a fucking bore." — Fucked My Way Up To The Top

     
     
    Reeve Carney plays Taylor's bf in the video for I Knew You Were Trouble. He is allegedly one of Lana's ex-boyfriends.

     
     
     
     
    So the song is about Taylor afterwards ? Well now I get the "whore".

    I don't know how many times this needs to be said, but god damn people, we don't know her. Yeah, it's normal to express concern and think about hypothetical issues, but starting to talk about depression based on just an interview is not alright . It is a real illness, that some people actually have and it's nothing compared to what she is saying. As much as it can affect anyone of us, it is not as common as most people tend to say. Especially clinical depression.
     
    I wish her all the best and I hope she will eventually find that peace that she has for so long been looking for. I'm sure it will come. Fame has taken away most of that freedom in which she used to find comfort before, but it has also brought a lot of good things and i'm sure she knows that. I hope she gets to meet more musicians like Dan, who has obviously been a great influence on her and on her music.

    Sry for double posting but I finished my translation. Wasn't sure if I should create a new thread because some people might not notice that there's the full interview now but whatever. Maybe someone could change the title or add sth like "full interview" or idk.
     
    FULL INTERVIEW (Translation)
     
     
     
     
    I kinda really like this interview or at least most of it. The part where she says she's feeling alone and that she thinks she experiences differently...I said almost the same thing to a friend when I had a mini meltdown a few days ago.   Also what she says about her imagination, that she's dreaming all the time - I kinda relate to her...
     
    Anyway, I hope I didn't make too many mistakes.
    And guys PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS A TRANSLATION OF A TRANSLATION!
    Now let the the meltdowns about feminism etc begin

    Still crying at Black Beauty because it was clearly meant to be a single and now it probably wont ever get a video since it's a bonus track

    Hello everyone! 
     
    I have found another interview, forgive me if this has already been posted but I can't seem to find it anywhere else on the board.
    I've done my best to translate it from French to English!
     
    (Original Source here)
     
    PS: The "OP Notes" are mine, just to elaborate certain quotes.
     
     
    Q: Ultraviolence, why this title?
    A: "The juxtaposition of "ultra", which gives a certain idea of luxury; and "violence" which, to me, reflects the sound of the album really well — it's chaotic but also street music. [OP note: In other words, the album has a very laid-back and down-to-earth feel.], melodic and sophisticating. Altogether then, [the word] Ultraviolence also means that I've lived between these two states; in my private life, a serene kind of love; in my professional life, a lot of negative press, in my opinion... "
     
    Q: But sadness inspires you, no? 
    A: "More so melancholy than sadness. This is where I've found amazing outcome, but I've also had many personal problems to overcome. I have a large family, lovely but complicated. I am responsible for my brother and my sister, who live with me. And I have some trouble moving from one world to the next." [OP Note: meaning, she has trouble finding balance between her personal and professional life.]
     
    Q: You have also had some traumatizing years with regards to your problem with alcohol?
    A: "Difficult, not traumatizing. You see.... I am alcohol-prone. In my family, we are all like that, through many generations. Drinking whiskey, it's in my genes! [laughs] As well as being a little off-the-wall."
     
    Q: How did you cope with all the criticism about you? 
    A: At the time, I was disappointed. When you release an album, you think it will go unnoticed [by the public], meaning, if it is listened to, it will be appreciated, [but] I never truly predicted that many people would listen to it, and that so many would have such bad things to say about it! As a result that means I've never made a single declaration [about it] because I didn't know what to say."
     
    Q: Was it a masochist reaction?
    A: "No, a lot of the attacks came from female journalists. I spoke to them, I knew what they thought. What's happened to me is a product of what journalism is today. The articles describe more the reactions from the critics listening to my music, [rather] than [focusing on] the songs themselves."
     
    Q: Maybe it's because you like to take clichés and use them [appropriate them] for you?
    A: "Exactly! In an interview they asked me, 'why do you speak about Marilyn Monroe or Elvis? It's really so cliché!' But I hardly know it because I lived in my own world for a long time. For me I have an intimate relationship with these stars. I've read and re-read their autobiographies. Like the man in my video, who is my tattooer, Mark Mahoney; someone who is very important to me, who has changed my life. In the video, "Tropico", there are also kitsch clichés."
     
    Q: Your looks has changed, it's more rock... 
    A: "They have criticized me, saying that I was fabricated, when I really wasn't all that different from any other girl. As a result, I tell myself that in showing myself more naturally, much like how I am in my life, the confusion will be less. At the same time, as soon as I want to prompt a reaction, I come across as the opposed, so..."

    I'm glad we've been leak-free for this long. It makes the hype for UV even more intense.

    For an old fart like me who listens to classic rock, it's obvious to the point of being almost not worth mentioning, but for those of you who are younger (basically everyone), "I'm talking 'bout my generation" is a reference to this song by The Who:

     
    Also, I love the line "I get high on hydroponic weed". Too bad it comes directly after "I've got feathers in my hair." (Why not go with "flowers"?)

    Making sure that every song about him isn't about his depression.
